The Lake

Redwood lake dates back to the 18th century and features on the Cassini map which is the earliest mapping recorded in France. This stunning Pre-Napoleonic seven-acre lake is nestled amongst sixteen acres of secluded woodland and fern meadows in the tiny hamlet of Seuil.

The lake varies in depth from three to ten feet at the dam end, plenty of hard spots can be found all over the lake, especially on the far margins, the lake is partly surrounded by forest containing beautiful old Oak, Chestnut, Pine, and Silver Birch trees with an abundance of wildlife.

The Fish

The lake contains around one hundred and eighty Carp, mostly young fast-growing fish with an average size currently around 35lb, the new lake record now stands at 57lb 4oz, due to the lake having never been a commercial fishery before there is still a few fish yet to be caught, one or two of these fish we believe will break the current lake record.

Perfectly situated in the heart of the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region renowned for long hot summers and extended growing seasons we are expecting to see more incredible growth rates over the next few years, over 15lb growth in a year is just becoming normal now for some of our younger fish.
